Number 2 is still on my Steam wish list. Will pick it up again during the next sale if it's at a good price. :)Quote:

I've probably put in 100's of hours of gameplay on each, but let's not count the hours I've spent watching videos (playthroughs, guides, lore, PvP), I can also talk and speculate about these titles for hours on end.
Not to mention trying to save up to buy the FuturePress guides, one of which goes for <2k
So, less than 2 grand can be free as well, no? :pQuote:

Is there actually a strong story and lore to back it up?
Strong story, not so much, but very open ended. The Lore is extremely deep and so open to speculation. Bare in mind, the DS community is one of the biggest game communities on the net!Quote:

I'm sure < is greater than sign. BUt yeah, the DS1 guide is over R2000 because of limited prints and hard to find now, not many people give them up. It's not just for the guide per se, I know the games like the back of my hands. BUt more for the keepsakes, art work, lore, items descriptions etc. The only reason I still own a PS3 is because the only two games I still have for it are these.
Edit: Oh, and I'm busy playing through another run in Dark Souls 1 on the PS3. Changing things up a bit.
It is good. Lore that doesn't just get spoon fed. Gameplay that beats any action rpg games. Armour and weapons that are so damn awesome and detailed. Secrets to find.Quote:

So if the guide is more than R2000, it would've been >R2000.Quote:

The combat is pretty awesome, but the terrible voice acting and dialogue completely put me off, and there is nothing in the story or world that makes me want to keep playing. The lack of ANY guidance is also not for me, but some people love it.Quote:
